I painted a Spirit Animal Portrait for Angela and she wanted me to share her story about the whale in the hopes that viewers might really connect with it and think to themselves "Wow, maybe I can get in touch with my guides too." Which they totally can!
Angela’s Story
The whale is extremely personal to me. I'd like to tell you an astral experience, I hope you won't mind! I've only ever told this to three people in my entire life.
I have a natural ability to astral travel around the universe, and one time (roughly 4 years ago) I arrived to a platform suspended in space with no walls. There were stairs leading to a platform, and there on the platform was a long harvest styled table (rectangular) with a handful (probably 6-7) "guides" or spiritual leaders. Each seemed to be from a different background. Some looked shaman, others look Native American, some even looked Nordic. I walked up the stairs and could see everything in such vivid detail, it was as clear/focused as perfect 3-D textures/scents. I looked down at the table and could see all sorts of food dishes, things I had never seen in my life. I pointed to each dish and excitedly asked what each one was, not realizing why I had been brought here.
The "team" at the table all looked at me amusingly, smiling very softly, and answering my questions gently. They informed me that they wanted to show me something. I agreed. Within moments, I was hoisted/lifted up inside of a liquidy-water like plasma bubble. The bubble was probably 6-7 feet in diameter. My body was encapsulated on the inside, and it moved over to the ocean. Floating approximately 30 feet above the water, my body underwent a rapid transformation, and I was transformed into a blue (possibly gray) whale. I felt the transformation with every ounce of being, and I truly *became* this whale. Within moments after the transformation the bubble burst, and I fell into the ocean. I was able to detect the sensations, vibration, and "beingness" of being this animal.
“Whale Heart” Spirit Animal Portrait by Kathy Crabbe
The first thing I noticed was that the body I was occupying was capable of feeling such a high vibratory love, it was that of 10,000 times the capacity of a human body/vehicle. I radiated in extensive love, and I knew what it was to be whale. In fact, it became quite clear within minutes that this was a past incarnation of my own. I was returning to a time in my ancient past, and this was a gift of memory given to me by my guides (or "crew"). I moved swiftly and slowly through the ocean water, able to feel every ounce of the water.
I continued to radiate in high vibration and knew what it was to be a whale.. The love is deeper than I could possibly replicate in my human form now, and what's left is the memory of how high a whale vibrates in this vibration. Soon, another whale slid in next to me and brushed the side of my body. We "vibrated" in love together. Soon again, a SECOND whale appeared, and came to my other side. I now had two whales to my right and left. And we moved along the ocean sliding next to each other, radiating in this high powerful vibration of love.
It was probably 20 minutes of this beautiful transformation, before directly in the water, I returned/transformed back into my human form. I swam (as a human) until I finally reached the platform. I climbed out of the ocean somehow onto the platform that my guides were sitting on, at their "harvest" like thanksgiving table with mysterious foods from their respective backgrounds/cultures. When I walked up to the platform, my eyes were full of tears with the memory of the experience and recollection of what it was to be a whale.. I cried. I held my hands up in a "prayer" formation and said: "Please, just one more time.. just one more time.. Please." They all chuckled, and seemed pleased and happy to grant me one more "go".
And again, I was hoisted up into the transformative liquid-y bubble, and I repeated the process. I swam again with my friends in the ocean. And again, returned to a human form while still in the water. I came back to the platform a second time, and thanked them profusely again and again for the gift and kindness of what they had done for me. I woke up barely breathing, as I had been gone from my body for a long time. It was... extraordinary.
You are the third person I have ever told this to. Your painting/drawing brought me to tears, as you literally have portrayed the whale smiling, and it reminds me of my deep memory and love of their species. I believe they may not be native to earth. Its possible they were brought here a long time ago.. There is something other-worldly about them, and I now know what they truly "feel". It could never be replicated in the human form.
Much love and many many blessings,
Angela
